Holidays Signal Quiet Bitcoin Price Through Year's End?

The last quarter of the year has included the most exciting bitcoin trading of the entire year, but the rest of the year will likely see a lull in trading and a consolidation around current levels. Any fall down below $400 will represent further price softness into the New Year, it seems.

Why Bitcoin will rise on Monday 23rd by more than 10%

Bitcoin has a tendency to spike on Monday and Tuesdays after a quiet weekend with little news. New money is flowing into the different Bitcoin-exchanges and people want more action.

People are in a happy mood where they want to see positive news. This will keep....

Bitcoin Price Analysis: Quiet Trade Above $450

Bitcoin price has not made any significant move during quiet Saturday trade. The start of day in the US may change that, but for now it looks like continuing inaction will be the prospect. A quiet day in the bitcoin price chart as price sticks close to the 200-hour moving average. Low volume trade keeps price within the constraints of the converging support near $449 (Bitstamp) and the horizontal resistance zone between $462 and $470. The recommendation remains that traders and investors wait for price to establish above the red resistance zone before committing to buy positions.....
